Modern-day stadia and venues must be versatile and multifunctional with a variety of revenue streams, immersive experiences, and diverse layouts. Having been involved in several iconic venues, our goal is always to champion sustainability and push the boundaries of stadium, sports, and leisure venues into modern-day needs.
Successful Projects Start with Robust Planning and Project Management
Ayesa has led the project management for the transformation of the Santiago Bernabéu Stadium with a team of twenty dedicated engineers. Ayesa’s involvement has ensured high-quality project delivery, cost control, innovative solutions, and minimal disruption to ongoing events, conferences, and matches.
The new facilities include the latest technological developments:
- A 360-degree video scoreboard
- A retractable pitch removal system
- A stunning skywalk with cafes and bars
- An impressive new façade that reasserts its position as a striking landmark in Madrid with images projected onto the surface and providing multiple benefits including noise and light pollution reduction, insulation, and temperature regulation.
Meeting the Sustainability Challenge
Sustainability in architecture and construction is a critical issue for our architectural and design team. Whether preserving existing structures or recycling materials, we are committed to incorporating sustainable practices. Integrating energy efficiency and imaginative lighting and cooling systems into our designs ensures more cost-efficient facilities with less maintenance.
Repurposing and Retrofitting Stadiums
Reconfiguring and retrofitting stadiums to increase their revenue potential and diversify event offerings often offers the most sustainable route. Features such as moving pitches and retractable roofs facilitate multi-use purposes, allowing stadiums to host a variety of events and enhance their functionality and profitability.
Community Connection
We aim to ensure that modern stadiums serve as the centrepiece of their local communities, becoming hubs of activity all year round.
